Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Policy Ecosystem

Status Finished
Acronym ORKAN
Summary Unmanned aircraft vehicles (UAV) have recently become affordable and easily accessible to a wider population. This resulted in UAVs or drones being increasingly used in different fields and for different purposes. However, there is also technology abuse where UAV can be used to violate privacy in the form of photographs or videos from above and over the obstacles (fences). Another example of misuse is unauthorized entry into the airspace reserved for commercial aircraft. Many scientists are working on methods that can bring down drone by using different technologies such as: nets, EMP wave, RF jamming, or trained falcon. This is just a temporary solution until a malicious individual acquires a new drone and again violates rules and endangers security and privacy. Precise localization of objects in space is an active research area that encompasses different technologies, in the area of ​radio localization there are methods such as trilateration using signal strength or time of arrival. The applicability of these methods in the location of drone facilities should be investigated.
